lar registered citizens we're stricken
off the lists by the board of revision,
mostly on the last day of the session,
while the names of many hundred
dead men and those who had removed
from the precincts, were retained. A
State grand jury is at work upon the
evidence.
Henry M. Stanley has started on
his long and possibly perilous trip to
the interior of Africa. Everybody
will wish him success in his efforts to
rescue that other gallant fellow, Emin
Bey, and his handful of brave Egyp-
tians.
Rev. DR.. Chapelle, pastor of st.
Matthews church in Washington, has
had the CRY of socialist raised against
him because IN a sermon on marriage
he alluded to the accumulation OF
wealth in a few hands and said that
the time was not far distant when
many persons who have sneered at
the doctrines of the church in regard
to usury would admit their truth and
wisdom. DR.. Chapelle holds an I'M
portant position IN the Roman Catho-
lie church, both as the adviser Of Car
dinal Gibbons and as the pastor of
Roman Catholic members of the di-
plomatic corps, and he is quick to
deny any socialistic leanings, saying
that his position is the opposite to
that of DR.. McGlynn.
Two strangers entered George H.
Mead's store at White Plains, n. Y,
about 9.45 o'clock on the evening of
Jan. 20, apparently bent on robbery.
Mr.. Mead's son, William E., 81 years
old, came out of a back room and
drove them out. The robbers shot
him dead and then fed. Chief of
Police See and two officers heard the
shooting and followed and overlook
the murderers, who at once turned in
another direction. They jumped into
sleigh and drove away, but having
mistaken their road, Returned to the
village and were fired at by chief of
Police See and both of them killed.
Great excitement prevails in the vii
lage over the tragedy. The murdered
man was highly esteemed. He leaves
a widow and child. On the bodies of
the murderers were found two new
sheath daggers with ten inch blades,
one new mask, four heavy revolvers
and timetables of the Harlem and
New York CITY railway. The men
were about % and 20 years old.

obscene Talk.

"E. w. NJ" writes: SIN the effort
to bring up my boy in the way he
should 90 1 am made painfully aware
of the prevalence of obscene talk
smong boys of all ages everywhere ;
the sons of the rich and refined as
we'll as of the poor and ignorant.
Those subjects which viewed right
fully, naturally and beautifully are no
shame, but honorable, by being mis-
represented by the ignorant and de-
graded, excite the imagin 2tion and
passions of our boys in way that is
very harmful to good morals. In a
district school that know of, and it
is no exceptional one, the girl pupils
are frequently annoyed by the sly and
insinuating remarks of the boy pupils,
and their innocent words made to bear
a double meaning. We real our girls
carefully, teaching them to abhor
every unchaste thought or word; why
should we be less watchful of our
boys? Why should not the same les
sons of purity be taught them? By
and by our girls go forth the wives OF
the men these impure boys have made
and how much unhappiness must be
theirs 1t seems to me that this is a
fit subject for philanthropic work, that
it is crying evil whose effects are
widespread and very dangerous in
their tendency, and | have been think
ing if there could be found some way
of making beginning toward reach
ing these boys and showing them q
better way; whether they could not
be induced to sign pledges against the
use of vile language. The law sup
presses the circulation of obscene lit
erature; why should not the commu.
nifty raise it's voice against obscene
talk? 1t may be that such move
ment is already in progress in some
part of the world. If so l would like
to know of it, so I could be in com
munication with its members"

THE TOBACCO TAX.-We believe the
revenue reformers ought to fight the
abolition of the tobacco taxes to the last
ditch. The tobacco taxes produce S26,-
100000 of revenue, without harm or
embarrassment to any interest what
ever. The burden is borne by those who
consume the tobacco. This is a field of
taxation which the states themselves
cannot enter. No tax is levied of which
SO large per cent. reaches the treasury.
Its abolition would not reduce the cost
of the internal revenue service. The
abolition of the tax on methylated spir-
its is all that ought to be conceded to the
enemies of the internal revenue system

He died without making any confes.
sion, and speaking through DR..

was absut q yeals old, and up to the
time Of her death was y, teacher in a

One Of the Best Known Chicago
House Goes Down.
CHICAGO, Jan. 19.-This evening a
deputy sheriff levied on the stock and
fixtures of the wholesale boot and shoe
manufactury of George w. Weber. at
116 Illinois street, on judgments
by confession amounting to S17,555.
The largest judgement was for $12,107
in favor OF the Hide and Leather bank
But little is known of the failure, as
the attorneys representing the judg-
ment creditors refuse to make any state
ment and Weber could not be seen.
The house is one of the oldest and best
known in Chicago. Its factory shut
down three weeks ago, and no stock
has been purchased for some time, al
though Weber's credit in the east is
said to have been practically unlim-
tied. Nominally the assets amount to
about 1926, 600, and their known liabil-
tiles are estimatedsat from $4,000 to
100000. Poor collections are as
signed as the chief cause Of the failure.

Boundaries.
A Singular and Fatal Accident.


COLUMBIA, S. G., Jan. 21.-Last fall,
while G. II. Barber, q merchant of Flor
ence, was standing in front of his shop,
he was approached by a friend from the
rear, who threw his arm over Barber's
neck, drawing his head downward and
bringing his right eyein contact with
pencil which his friend had in his
vest pocket. The pencil. about an inch
and half long, entered the eye, and
was so completely concealed as to battle
the skill of physicians to 6ndit. After
remaining in the eye about two months
the pencil came out, and it was then
thought that Barber would recover, but
the lead had poisoned the optic nerve,
and later the brain became similarly
affected. Yesterday he died.
